How has the holiday shopping season affected Thanksgiving traditions?

English

Liula [17]3 years ago

The most commonly repeated story behind the post-Thanksgiving shopping-related Black Friday tradition links it to retailers. As the story goes, after an entire year of operating at a loss (“in the red”) stores would supposedly earn a profit (“went into the black”) on the day after Thanksgiving, because holiday shoppers blew so much money on discounted merchandise. Though it’s true that retail companies used to record losses in red and profits in black when doing their accounting, this version of Black Friday’s origin is the officially sanctioned—but inaccurate—story behind the tradition.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

F. Scott Fitzgerald, "Winter Dreams" and Jack London, “To Build A Fire”

Explanation:

Third-person limited is where a story is told by a narrator rather than a person (uses words like he, she, they, etc.) and you can see the thoughts of only one singular person. These stories have these 2 qualities.
